tlous over Chicago weather. The Rev.
D. E. Bierce writes a religious publica-
ton Al follows:
The week Of prayer has heen one Of
intense cold weather, the thermometer
ranging in the thir,ies below sero.
When it tn $50 degrees below
zero and 80 and 40 and have it continue
a week the cold gets intense.
So we have been told by those who
have been there. Further along in his
account Of this week of prayer, Mr..
Biercc says:
At this meeting several Of our young

ture. grew funny in the council last Sat
.urday while discussing the bill prov,d.
ing for an election to decide whether
the people Of the territory want divis-
ion or single statehood. He said a col.
lege and . church in . certain DAKOTA
town were having dispute over the
"And0verd doctrine, "and he thought that,
too, should be submitted TO the people
for decision. But that was q good
answer Of Mr.. Gains, who said

in the removal. Of the capital from

mako it &C hot, politically, fol "slick
Alec" that he, too, removed to the latter
place. The ,removalists Of BurleiYh
county put him in the legislature for I
purpose-to defend the removal scheme
and oppose division. "The gentleman
from Burleigh" saved the people o.
South Dakota the trouble Of voting or
his sectional loyalty by hieing himself
to Bismarck, north Of the 7th standard

in South Dakota was gone, and he 70

congress will do nothing for Dakota un'
til the people Of Dakota are enabled te
say what they want. 1.-THE people want
division and 20 declare at the polls. con
gress will give it to them 7; il it Is single
statehood they will be admitted, and The
question will be forever settled. Tit
bill for submitting the question is tn,
proper remedy. No matter what tn,
cost is, so long as it is within the pale d
reason and economy. Better spend
100000 than to continue the blind pol

Union. It il worth ten times tn,

on the important question Of division
and admission ; to have II basis uIo,
which we may build one state or tw,

es nothing more than the passage Of tn

Editor Devas Lake Inter. Ocean: The

to strike plates To be loaned the press,
both English and Scandinavian. and to
meet the necessary expenses to organ
Ire the northwest for the purpose Of

this region that are disloyal tn the Stan-

for thit request are there: First, such

law Of congress, and it would be for the
general good Of Dakota aud therefore

be beneficial If adopted. II has been dis
cussed for nearly Eve years. No enemy
to it has been able to pick q flaw in 1t.
The Northwestern of 81. Paul. May 8,
1885, editorially said Of it that It il the
only bill they had over seen not drawn
in the interest Of the pine ring. The
last legislature and the Fsrmers' Alliance
both endorse it ~ the only bill that
meets the requirements Of the case.
The ridicule aud false statements Of the
evidently subsidized Bismarck Tribune
about II and the asked for ~sppropria.

Eighty Years I'M the ARMY.

BERLIN, January Emperor vii
liam to-day, celebrated the 8Oth ann:s
versary of his entrance into the Prus-
sian army, oy receiving all his CON-
manding generals, headed by the Crown
Prince Frederick William. The Crown
Prince addressed the Emperor as
follows: The army celebrates with
your majesty the day upon which, so
years ago, you entered the army. On
several occasions, We have been
fortunate IN coming before our
chief in war to thank him for leading
U.s. through the severe struggles to
glorious victories. To-day, however,
| Your Majesty can look back upon six
teen years which have been richly
blessed by peace, years above all dedi-
Gated to the undis ucbed development,
and strengthening o an Empire
/ which was only established after
long waiting and struggling. This
work OF policy succ eeded be-
cause Your Majesty's competent
and active leadership raised the capa-
bility of the army to that state of per-
lection of which every German soldier
is justly proud. The Prussian principle
that no difference exists between the
p6Oplc anu GuG ARMY .D6CduSH DUH are
always ready to defend their country,
has by your maiesty's care, become the
property of the whole German nation.
In this natural case of ability lies our
greatest security for the maintenance e
, of peace. May | then, again, tell your
majesty that our strong and united ua-
ton. in grateful love and fai.
fitness, always ready for sacrifices,
trusts Inits Emperor, and in war looks
with joyful confidence upon him as the
preserver of ueace and cherishes the
wish that Gods blessing in fullness may
dwell upon him.
The Emperor, replying, referred to
| his father, who, he said, allowed him
to enter the army in the hope that he
would experience better times than
Prussia then endured. Providence had
permitted him to see such happy times
in the fullest measure. These better
| days were especially due to the sue
cesses OF the army. Here the Emperor,
much moved, embraced the Crown
Prince and afterward General Won
Moltke, to whom he spoke in an
earnest manner, thanking him for his
unparalleled services.
Finally, turning to the other officers
present, he said he hoped to meet them
again on the 1st of January, 1888.
